Anyone remember the very first Iraq war. During desert Shield as they were ammassing this huge coalition the folks back home were having second thoughts. Going to war for oil and a bunch of jaded Kuwait nobilty that fled to paris .Worried about the mother of all battles, lol, we did not know what we had up our sleeve as yet.
So wham bam all over the telly worldwide repeatadly the same blurb. This woman crying said she witnessed the Iraqui soldiers taking babies out of the incubator and taking the incubaters back to Baghdad. We all went nuts and it was like "LETS GET EM, THOSE BASTARDS!!!!"
2 monthst after the war eneded I saw this woman on cnn. She was asked how she could be in Kuwait when she never left San Fransisco. She replied that the cia had given her 15 grand to do the piece.
Now here's the kicker.
The cia head died just prior to the end of the Iraq war and a new head was in place.
When he was asked if this was ll true , and why they did it his reply was simply "Yes it's true. Sometimes we have to fool the American public for their own good"
When the whole weapons of mass destruction deal came out i emailed this reminder to every possible Canadain television newspare i could think of, asking them as well were they gonna fool us again.
No reply , but once on a cbc interview/discussion someone brought up the whole affair and it was shrugged off......
The question for me is not one of cia tactics , but our Canadain media and journalist going along with their horse hockey. Actually did our own RCMP/CISIS whatever? know this was cow cookies.....Did they follow cia tactic to fool us too?
